If you experience explosive diarrhea, first ask yourself if your diet may be responsible. Any increase in fruit, vegetable, bran cereal or whole grain consumption is putting more indigestible fiber into your gut, which acts to soften stool and speed the transit of fecal matter through the intestines. Excessive fiber, or a drastic increase in fiber intake, can cause gas and diarrhea, including explosive diarrhea. Fruits, vegetables and whole grains also contain some poorly digested starches and sugars

So you see, the sandwich which was, if you watch the scene, triple layered with cheap white bread and of course the assumed fruit content of the chutney itself will lead to poor digestion and increased gas.

This is no ordinary sandwich. Remember that Lister invented the sandwich after reading a book on biological warfare. Remember that this is akin to "bowel surgery". Remember that Rimmer instantly said "I feel like I'm having a baby".

Thus being concerned about the state of the floor is a natural state of affairs

'Bacteriological' warfare but I see your point.

We are forgetting the most important point in this debate: Rimmer is a hologram.

Holly was able to materialise the offending sandwich into Rimmer's hand. If this materialised sandwich was dropped it would clearly make a mess. However, Rimmer being a hologram he is composed entirely of light. He would no longer perform any bodily waste expulsion.
